All you need are a few simple supplies (that we’ve listed below) and you’re set. There isn’t any complicated cutting for this craft and because the materials are so few, it’s a cheap craft to do with a group of students!

Supplies

Directions

Download the paper bag bunny template, print and cut out the pieces.

Measure out the bottom section of the brown paper bag and cut out a piece of colored card stock in the same dimension. Glue this rectangle to the bottom of the bag.

Place the white belly in the middle of the paper you glued in step #2 and glue in place.

Glue the bunny’s face to the top flap of the brown paper bag.

Position the bunny’s muzzle in the middle of the face, just below the eyes and glue down.

Place the pink cheeks on either side of the muzzle and glue in place.

Assemble the bunny’s ears by gluing the inner ear to the middle of the outer ear.

Glue the finished bunny ears to the back of the brown paper bag.

That’s all there is to it! Now your kids or students have a cute bunny rabbit craft that they can use for pretend play!

Bunny Puppet Notes

There are two ways to use this craft that come to our mind.

First, you can make and use it for springtime. If you choose this option, you’ll likely want to pick a realistic rabbit color like gray, white or a shade of brown.

Kids can learn about springtime, flowers, animals and the changing seasons and then make this rabbit craft.

Second, you may want to use this bunny craft for Easter. When you make this into an Easter bunny craft, you can choose any shade of color for the fur that you’d like!

We went with soft blue, purple and pink but the choice is yours. If you’re making this Easter craft with a few kids it would be cute to have them put on a puppet show with their new toys.

However you decide to make this paper bag bunny, we think the kids will enjoy it!
